Power Liftgate - If Equipped
The power liftgate may be opened
by pushing
the electronic liftgate release (refer to "Keyless
Enter-N-Go - Passive Entry" located in
"Things To Know Before Starting Your Vehicle")
or by pushing the LIFTGATE
button
on the
key fob. Push the LIFTGATE
button
on the key fob
twice within five seconds to open the power liftgate.
Once the liftgate is open, pushing the
button twice
within five seconds a second time will close the
liftgate.
The power liftgate may also be opened or closed by
pushing the LIFTGATE button located on the front
overhead console. If the liftgate is fully open, the liftgate
can be closed by pushing the LIFTGATE button located
on left rear trim panel, near the liftgate opening. If the
liftgate is in motion, pushing the LIFTGATE button
located on left rear trim panel will reverse the liftgate.
When the LIFTGATE
button on the key
fob is
pushed two times, the turn signals will flash twice to
signal that the liftgate is opening or closing (if Flash
Lamps with Lock is enabled in the Uconnect settings),
and the liftgate chime will be audible. For further
information, refer to Uconnect Settings in Understanding
Your Instrument Panel.
NOTE:
- In the event of a power malfunction to the liftgate, an
emergency liftgate latch release can be used to open
the liftgate. The emergency liftgate latch release can be
accessed through a snap-in cover located on the liftgate
trim panel.
- If liftgate is left open for an extended period of time,
the liftgate may need to be closed manually to reset
power liftgate functionality.
WARNING!
During power operation, personal injury or cargo
damage may occur. Ensure the liftgate travel path is
clear. Make sure the liftgate is closed and latched
before driving away. |
NOTE:
- The power liftgate buttons will not operate if the
vehicle is in gear or the vehicle speed is above 0 MPH
(0 km/h).
- The power liftgate will not operate in temperatures
below −22 F (−30 C) or temperatures above 150 F
(65 C). Be sure to remove any buildup of snow or ice
from the liftgate before pushing any of the power
liftgate switches.
- If anything obstructs the power liftgate while it is
closing or opening, the liftgate will automatically
reverse to the closed or open position, provided it
meets sufficient resistance.
- There are also pinch sensors attached to the side of the
liftgate. Light pressure anywhere along these strips
will cause the liftgate to return to the open position.
- If the liftgate is not fully open, push the Liftgate
button on the key fob twice to
operate the
liftgate.
- If the electronic liftgate release is pushed while the
power liftgate is closing, the liftgate will reverse to the
full open position.
- If the electronic liftgate release is pushed while the
power liftgate is opening, the liftgate motor will disengage
to allow manual operation.
- If the power liftgate encounters multiple obstructions
within the same cycle, the system will automatically
stop and the liftgate must be opened or closed manually.
WARNING!
- Driving with the liftgate open can allow poisonous
exhaust gases into your vehicle. You and your
passengers could be injured by these fumes. Keep
the liftgate closed when you are operating the
vehicle.
- If you are required to drive with the liftgate open,
make sure that all windows are closed, and the
climate control blower switch is set at high speed. Do not use the recirculation mode.
